  setcookie($portalname, "");
  header("location:../index.php");
}

$chemin = "../";
include($chemin."inc/includes.inc");

if (($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$portalname] == $cookiedata || md5($pass) == $mdp) && 
empty($pg)) {
[...]

include("mdp.php");

$miniPortailAdmin = "";

  session_unregister("miniPortailAdmin");
  header("location:../index.php");

$chemin = "../";
include($chemin."inc/includes.inc");

if ((session_is_registered("miniPortailAdmin") || md5($pass) == $mdp) &&
